This really has nothing to do with natural living although ebooks are certainly green. I just wanted to share this awesome deal I spotted on Amazon this morning. You can get all three of the Hunger Games books for only $5. This is the ebook version of the books and you can read them on a Kindle OR the free Kindle reader that works on your computer or mobile devices. I read Kindle books on my Android tablet with the Kindle reader app. I was a hold out on the ebook craze and now I am sold: … [Read more...]

The Reality of Positive Parenting
By Ashley Allman My sister, who is not yet a mom, recently shared this quote with me: “When a child hits a child, we call it aggression. When a child hits an adult, we call it hostility.

Who has the time or money to try all the new eco … [Read more...]
Getting Organized with Me in a Tree
I was so encouraged by my progress on my New Year's goals for the month of January. It was an awesome start to the year. Then along came February and I was bombarded by one stressful situation after another. Much of it was stuff I could not control and feeling helpless is no fun at all. Some of it though was just reaping the consequences of being so disorganized. They say that once it rains, it pours and that is the way February went. It's all about the Law of Attraction. Once the bad stuff … [Read more...]
